The history of bangles dates back to as early at 2600 B.C. They were and are popular in most Indian cultures, serving as an important piece of wedding jewelry for many brides.

In ancient civilizations engraving was done by hand using simple tools like chisels or hammers. Over time, came the invention of pantograph and computerized engraving machines, that allowed the engraving to be more precise and done more quickly. Today, laser engraving is the primary method for most jewelry and can make for a beautiful unique and/or personalized piece!
